.SH NAME
rlm_chap \- FreeRADIUS Module
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fIrlm_chap\fP module provides CHAP functionality.
.PP
This module validates a user with CHAP authentication.
If called in Authorize, it will look for CHAP-Password
attribute in the Access-Request and adds an Auth-Type
attribute set to CHAP if the Config-Items list unless 
Auth-Type has already set.
.PP
CHAP authentication requires access to the clear-text
password for the user.  Standard Unix system authentication
or passwords encrypted via crypt() are not compatible
with CHAP.
